Dove Child spoken word (Click to hear poem live)
Baby to toddler we’re told be quite, don’t move
Lullabies are sung to keep us safe in the groove
We crawl on our bellies and reach for a treat
Guided by tricks that get us up on our feet
Toddler to child we’re told not to do that
We swallow everything with no fear to get fat
Child to teen we run on invincible power
While the clocks hand erases our innocence every hour
Teen to adult we’re poured into a mold
We become a memory, a story to be told
Born again our spirit is revealed
Covered by flesh thats so tightly sealed
Epiphany, our teacher, we’re awakend to our cause
Building our courage we continue without pause
Our song finished, heard by those we luv
We’re a child again with the voice of a dove
